Summer Reading List – Part 1

Summer is a time for reading…after many months and years of leaning toward non-fiction books (primarily biblical studies, theology and the like), I’m going to begin by trying on some fiction again. Every time I read fiction, I love it. But, I’m not going exclusively fiction. Here’s the start:

The Essential Wooden: A Lifetime of Lessons on Leaders and Leadership, by John Wooden

Where Have all the Leaders Gone?, by Lee Iacoca

The Road, by Cormac McCarthy

Book by Book: Notes on Reading and Life, by Michael Dirda

The Glass Castle, by Jeanette Walls

The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini

Gilead, by Marilynne Robinson (this book is a Pulitzer Prize Winner)

Part 2 will include some of the non-fiction stuff…
